Mainly, the systems implemented are fascinating (VA, automated offers, etc.)

Specifically, if you’re looking at seller financing, assuming buy and hold investing, comparing the 2 offers below 1.Seller Finance: $250K, 5% down, 30yr @ 2.5% = $11,261 yearly debt service2.Seller Finance: $184K, 5% down, 30yr @ 5% = $11,260 yearly debt service Over the life of the loan, the total cost is the same, the only difference would be the ratio of interest to principal in the total payment.

Now I am looking at two amazing deals for my family as a starter here in Maine!

So, I think my main struggle is freedom of location opens up the whole country, which multiplies the analysis paralysis effect and makes me less confident in choosing the right area. 

Phoenix is obviously going to be leading the charge on that.The main population segments moving here are going to be:1) Retirees from colder states (Florida #1 destination, Arizona #2) Over 10,000 people turn 65 every day.2) Younger Generations from California (mostly from SoCal - Median home price is double Phoenix's)The main thing that'll keep the ball rolling is young families from more expensive markets like California.

@Kent Caldwell I do mainly Metro Detroit but outside of the city.

I know to a large extent Seller’s and Brokers are interested in your “resume” which is why a lot of people invest as LP’s or sign on as guarantors for agency debt before sponsoring their own deals.

I am an active duty service member with no debt (yet) and about $10,000 is cash to invest. 

I mainly was needing help deciding on whether to start a fund or raise equity on a deal by deal basis and where to start raising funds (HNW individuals, RIA/placement agent, Family offices, PE, Institutions) Below are my summary notes.

Hopefully as far from debt as I can get actIally haha.
